inside the actors studio

Starting tomorrow evening, Bravo's Inside the Actors Studio will celebrate Black History Month with repeats of episodes featuring Eddie Murphy, Will Smith, Dave Chappelle, Jamie Foxx, Forrest Whitaker and Queen Latifah. On February 19 at 8 p.m., a new two-hour episode will feature Diana Ross in an exclusive interview with host James Lipton. Ross will also perform some of her songs during the episode. The schedule is below:

Which of these things is not like the other: Al Pacino, Don Cheadle, Robert Downey, Jr., Dustin Hoffman, Tom Hanks,
and... Tim Allen? Bravo is touting all of
these actors' upcoming appearances with James Lipton on Inside the Actors Studio (a title that is screaming
for an apostrophe!). Hanks will be the first actor to make a second appearance in the Studio, while Dustin
Hoffman will be the Studio's 200th celebrity guest. No air dates are set, but the network says they'll appear
this spring.

While most of the names are impressive, they might also be a bit boring. My favorite guest was
Mike Myers, who did all sorts of voices and had some fun at Lipton's expense.

NBC Universal continues to believe in the
power of iTunes by putting some of Bravo's most popular programming on the web. Starting on February 28th, you will be
able to download this entire season of Project Runway episodes, plus you can see the reunion special before it
even airs. iTunes will also have the most popular episodes of Inside the Actor's Studio, including the recent
episode with Dave Chappelle and big-time actors like Angelina Jolie and Michael J. Fox. As usual, each episode is
$1.99.
